It was committed a while ago. Any system build should have it now.
/usr/src/bin/mined.

More puzzled now than before... I can see making things 'optional' and
requiring initial migration where appropriate as part of a sysadmin's
'personalization' of tools, as with bash (license issue), or joe.

But '/usr/src' is an empty directory on a default install from ISO CD.
At least, mine is.

And, if /usr is mounted then vi, joe, emacs, whatever .. and their libs,
would be just as 'available', so no particular need for 'static' mined.

To the extent the objective was to have an emergency editor 'always near
to hand' to help get out of trouble, i.e. - in /bin or /sbin as a static
(stripped) binary in case one had to edit /etc/rc(whatever) or
/etc/fstab - having it in /usr/src/bin seems to run counter.
